Siloxane and siloxane derivatives as encapsulants for organic light emitting devices
First Claim
1. A Siloxane film for protection of part of a light emitting portion of a contact electrode of an organic light emitting device having two contact electrodes, one thereof serving as anode and another thereof serving as cathode, and an organic region in which light is generated by means of electroluminescence if a voltage is applied between said two contact electrodes, wherein said Siloxane film includes within its structure an integral optical element designed to interact with light emitted by said organic light emitting device, wherein said optical element is selected from the group consisting of one or more of:
- a lens, a filter, a color converter, a grating, a prism, a bubble, a diffuser and a polarizer.

Abstract
An organic light emitting device (10) is provided which is encapsulated by a Siloxane film (17). This Siloxane film (17) is applied to the light emitting portion of the diode (10) providing for protection against contamination, degradation, oxidation and the like. The Siloxane film (17) carries an optical element, such as a lens (18) for example. This optical element (18) is arranged such that the light generated inside the diode (10) is output through it.
